Nursery on the Hill, was set up in 2006, and Nursery on the Green followed six years later.

Owner Kaye Wildman, who has three grandchildren in the nurseries, started her career as a childminder, is retiring.

‘I was really impressed with Family First and all the effort they have put in to get to know my business. They think the same way about nursery care as I do and I know they will look after my team and the children, which is important to me,’ she said.

The nursery owner said she had given both nurseries ‘considerable investment’ and spent £200,000 in Nursery on the Hill.

Interviewed by Nursery World recently, Ms Wildman said she had recently expanded her second setting, Nursery on the Green, with a new 15-place baby room.
